Introduction to families

"Dear Family" message

Dear Family, My name is Tayla, and I’m a bubbly and outgoing person with a passion for caring for children. I’ve been looking after kids for as long as I can remember, and I genuinely love spending time with them. Their energy and curiosity inspire me every day, and I strive to create an environment where they feel safe, valued, and encouraged. My goal is to inspire and motivate those around me, whether it’s through play, creative activities, or simply being a supportive presence in their lives. I believe that every interaction is an opportunity to make a positive impact, and I aim to nurture a love for learning and exploration in every child I care for. I’m excited about the journey ahead and the chance to share joyful moments with the little ones!

Why I would make the perfect au pair

I am a patient and understanding person who you will rarely catch shouting. My calm demeanor creates a safe space for kids to express themselves, and I strive to be a positive influence in their lives. While I have a firm side when it comes to homework and ensuring important tasks are completed, I balance this with a bubbly personality. I enjoy matching others’ energy, which helps me connect with kids on their level. I absolutely love playing fun games and engaging in creative activities like arts and crafts. I believe that learning can be enjoyable, and I always look for ways to make our time together fun and exciting. Whether we’re exploring new ideas or diving into imaginative play, I am committed to creating memorable experiences. I am always ready to listen to whatever a child wants to share, whether it’s a whimsical story from their imagination or something they experienced that day. I value their thoughts and feelings and enjoy having meaningful conversations that foster their creativity and self-expression. My goal is to build a trusting relationship where they feel comfortable being themselves.

Hobbies and other interests

I love planning and organising everything; I find it to be a calming and rewarding experience. Recently, I’ve discovered a new passion for the gym, particularly boxing, which has not only improved my fitness but also brought me a sense of empowerment. Additionally, I’ve taken an interest in playing padel. It’s a fun activity that serves as a great bonding experience with friends and family. I've also thoroughly enjoyed tutoring primary school kids in math. Helping them grasp concepts and seeing their confidence grow is incredibly fulfilling.
